A BATTLING performance by The Mariners today earned them a home replay against Luton Town.
The score ended 2-2 with both sides having to come from behind in this afternoon's enthralling Fourth Round FA Cup match at Kenilworth Road, Luton.
The result means that both sides will be in the hat for the draw for the Fifth Round.
And Grimsby Town must fancy their chances of progressing when the two clubs lock horns on their own Blundell Park ground.
There was an early interruption of play when the automatic pitch sprinklers came on.
When the action resumed, it was The Mariners who went ahead just before half-time thanks to a towering Gavan Holohan header from a corner.
Soon after the break, The Hatters were on level terms when Elijah Adebayo converted a penalty.
It was then the home side which went ahead on 66 minutes when Jordan Clark fired home - only for Harry Clifton to hit the leveller just a minute later.
Both sides pressed for a winner, and had chances to win it, but the score ended all-square.
Before the match some visiting fans were held up after traffic was held up by a multiple vehicle accident on the A421 road in Bedfordshire.
